Not sure what to say?

June 3, 2012. Renovations on the cottage are almost complete. I hope you like them and will join us there. I miss you.

Your son,

Joey Stevens

Dad has joined Mom in heaven. He was never completely happy without her. He is now happy and at peace.

I was just thinking this morning - yes thinking about you Ann - somehow the winter months bring thoughts of you to me. You ask why, I have no idea - Perhaps its because I no longer hear your voice - on the phone, even though hundreds of miles separated us - I thought of you often as a wondeful sisterinlaw - always with a smile on your face - patient and always willing to help someone. I miss you Ann - just as I do your sister Katie, your brother Steve and George - Valentines Day is coming...

Dorothy Mayer sent me an e-mail that her hubby John Mayer had passed away 1-19-07. He had just completed a fabulous (his dream) home. I believe he was 80. I hope the two of you can get together. Both he and Dorothy were great friends. She is very ill. But she has a daughter who will be taking care of her and one of her sons will be staying with her. I think of you always. I am wearing your wedding ring. I had placed it on my finger immediately after you...

Their is going to be another this summer. I can't give you the details at this time. Hopefully Toni and her clan will be able to...

Dear Ann,
That was so nice of Diana Metreger to remember you on New Years Day 2007. She surprised me. I had a hectic but pleasant Christmas. Midnight Mass with MaryAnne singing in the choir and a solo by her. Everyone loves to hear her sing. She plays some instruments and sings with a group. They play the celtic, Irish, and Scottish songs at a little pub. No Pay just fun.Christmas we exchanged gifts.
Colin & Rachael were there as well as Evan (With a few A's and only one B) He is in his...

Auntie Ann was like the grandmother we never had. I love her dearly.

Dear Great-grandmother,
I wish you were here right now.I miss you dearly.I'm fine how about

but you alredy know.I felt scared
and afraid when you were alive that the machine would stop working and granpa would break his back or you would die and it did happen.This whole week was spring break and it was fun but it was not
as fun then whithout you.I felt sad when you died but I knew God would be with you and keep you with him so I...

Hi Ann! I miss you and think of you often. My love for you is and always has been deep. Sometimes I am speaking to you as though we were in the same room. I believe that you gave me the number 847 to play. It was given to me in the morning. I played the number for the evening. The next day I checked the winning number. It was a winner for the morning and not the evening. Well we will have to try it sometime in the future. Tamerine and the great-grandchildren-Madison,Mercede
